The chapter that I enjoyed the most was Ancient Greece, because of a few reasons. For example, their myths and gods are interesting, they actually had a democracy for a while, and they believed in their gods so much, that when the won the Trojan War, they thought their god Athena helped them because they prayed to her, and actually built an entire city and named it Athens after her.

In that chapter, I learned that there are eight Greek gods, Zeus, Hera, Ares, Athena, Apollo, Poseidon, Aphrodite, and Hermes. According to Greek myths, the goddess Athena was born when Zeus was hit on his forehead, and she came out of it, fully grown, dressed in battle armor, screaming a war cry.

New skills I have learned throughout the year are map skills, some geography, and when certain things happened.

All of the things that I learned can be used for travel, and if I wanted to, to be a Social Studies teacher.
